Now, the Iron-Blooded King feels more and more that this once-familiar world is gradually becoming unfamiliar.
Other civilizations originally existed in this world, but they were almost completely destroyed in the fierce war between the Xenomorphs and the Predators.
Therefore, there are almost no other civilizations in the universe today, which is why the world's will has always harbored aversion towards them.
Suddenly, the Ironblood King realized something—the person who didn't belong to the Ironblood Clan but possessed Ironblood characteristics seemed to be connected to some organization, which was obviously very abnormal.
Then, a thought flashed through his mind: Is there a similar situation on the Xenomorph side? Could those powerful Xenomorphs be in the same situation? Thinking of this, the Iron King's eyes instantly focused, and a powerful wave of consciousness emanated from his body.
Meanwhile, the alien advisor, who was conducting an investigation on a certain planet, suddenly frowned, quickly found a secluded spot, and said in a low voice, "Why would they suddenly contact me? Doing so could very well expose us!"
After the Iron King solemnly recounted his findings in detail, the alien advisor gaped in astonishment, his face filled with shock, as if struck by lightning, and his body swayed precariously.
The news was so shocking, like a bomb exploding in his heart, that he almost lost his balance.
"Is...is this true?" the alien advisor asked, his voice trembling.
"There really is a third-party force that has planted spies in our tribe?"
The Iron-Blooded King's face was as cold as ice, his eyes flashing with a chilling light. He said coldly, "Do you think I have any reason to lie?"
"If I hadn't discovered this by chance, I wouldn't have believed that a third-party force had successfully infiltrated our clan."
“Those guys look exactly like our people, have the same aura and even bloodline, and are completely indistinguishable.”
"If I hadn't sensed something amiss with my keen intuition, I would never have noticed this situation."
"Hasn't your alien race recently seen a group of powerful aliens suddenly rise to prominence? Investigate them thoroughly; you might find something useful."
The alien advisor had slowly accepted the situation and began to analyze it carefully: "What do you think this third-party force is trying to do?"
The Ironblood King frowned, pondered for a moment, and then replied, "To be honest, I'm not entirely sure either. Their recent behavior has indeed been rather strange. As far as I know, the people they've planted within our Ironblood clan are actively hunting Xenomorphs, and they seem quite enthusiastic about it."
Meanwhile, on your side, the Xenomorphs are launching a fierce hunt for the Predators. All of this makes me wonder if they truly intend to provoke a full-scale war between us.
“Yes, that possibility certainly exists, but it’s not certain yet. However, I think we should remain vigilant and closely monitor their every move. Also, I have another question for you: has the Alien Queen noticed anything about this?” the Iron King asked.
The alien advisor shook his head in denial: "Her Majesty the Queen? She's a selfish and self-serving person who doesn't think about anything but eating and laying eggs. Although she may have noticed something amiss, she hasn't really thought about these issues in depth."
My biggest concern right now is what kind of impact this third-party force will have on our plans. After all, we need to ensure the plans proceed smoothly and are not disrupted by any unexpected events.
The Iron-Blooded King said, "Then investigate secretly. If it's detrimental to us, deal with it directly."
After ending his communication with the Iron King, the Alien strategist frowned and said, "It seems that things have changed. I can't rely solely on the Iron King anymore."
...
On a planet controlled by the Predators, the leaders and customers of the Predator faction gathered together.
General Chen spoke first: "Have you all noticed lately that the Ironblood Clan doesn't seem to be very friendly towards us?"
"Furthermore, many members of the Ironblood Clan have become more stringent in their assessment of combat achievements. Once someone's achievements exceed those of ordinary people, they will be subject to rigorous scrutiny."
Wang Hu frowned and said to Old Chen with a worried tone, "Old Chen, do you think there might be a problem on our side, and that the enemy has discovered us? After all, the shopkeeper has clearly stated that the hidden mission has been activated. Could this be related to our operation?"
The old master stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and then replied, "Let me use this Bagua mirror to make a calculation!" With that, he took out a mysterious Bagua mirror from his robes.
Qingzhenzi, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed at the treasure in the old master's hand, exclaiming in surprise, "Wow, when did you get this treasure?"
This Bagua mirror was unlike any other; its surface shimmered with a faint light, seemingly containing the power of cause and effect, drawing all eyes to it. Qingzhenzi couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is there anything special about this Bagua mirror?"
The old master explained smugly, "This is a rare magical artifact called the Cause and Effect Eight Trigrams Mirror. It can be used to see what happened in the past and what might happen in the future."
A hint of envy flashed in Qingzhenzi's eyes as he exclaimed, "Wow, that's amazing! It seems you're quite lucky to have obtained such a precious treasure."
The old celestial master smiled and continued to boast, "Actually, I have an even more powerful mirror—the Haotian Mirror, which originates from the world of Shushan Legend. Although it cannot compare to the legendary Haotian Mirror, it still possesses great power."
Upon hearing this, everyone showed expressions of amazement, and they were extremely envious of the old master's good fortune.
The old celestial master began to use all his magic to find the cause of this incident, when suddenly a backlash struck.
The old master was unaware that he had coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Qingzhenzi immediately placed his palm on the old celestial master's back and began to transfer his magical power.
With the blessing of the two, the Causal Bagua Mirror spun rapidly, and strands of cause and effect began to emerge.
The entire story unfolds in the mirror.
However, just as they were about to delve deeper, the Old Celestial Master and Qingzhenzi suddenly coughed up blood again, their breaths became weak, and the Karma Eight Trigrams Mirror also fell down.
The old master took a breath and said, "It seems the waters here are really deep."
He wanted to delve deeper, but unfortunately, his cultivation level was inferior to his opponent's, and the resistance in the realm of cause and effect was too great, preventing him from going any further. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to withstand the backlash of cause and effect.
On his way back, the Iron King felt uneasy, as if someone was watching him.
